Who was there: *Puck40/Ami*, MichiruLum/Michiru, SlrReiChan/Rei, SGSetsuna/Setsuna, TaikiKou/Taiki (For abit), SeiyaOrion/Seiya, KawaiiBaka/Usagi, MamoruTux1/Mamoru (for abit), GothSaturn/Hotaru (for abit), me too ;P

What Happened : ((Um… how did we start out? O.o Oh yeah, okay well um)) Kaen woke up and was standing in the doorway looking outside when Usagi and the others woke up too. Rei woke up at her temple, glowing a nice green color then lost air and then transported to Hokkan Country where the rest of the Genbu Seishi transported to. She fell from the sky… right onto Usagi ((Heheh ^_^)) Rei came inside after Kaen and Usagi after she picked herself up off Usagi.

Back in Chichiri’s cottage, Hotaru woke up and talked with Haruka, who had been watching them all night. Seiya and Chichiri woke up afterwards. They decided on going to Byakko Hall to go get their Shinzaho as soon as possible. Haruka asked Hotaru to stay at the cottage and watch over Mamoru, Setsuna and Minako. Hotaru, after some protesting, agreed to it. Chichiri threw his hat onto the ground and covered it with his cape. He told Haruka and Seiya to step on it. Haruka stepped onto it and was immediately absorbed, then Seiya and Chichiri followed, as the hat disappeared behind Chichiri. On the other side they found themselves at Byakko Hall. Which was a large temple building in the middle of the desert, with a GIGANTIC door. The three of them stood out there talking and looking at the building for awhile. As Setsuna woke up back at Chichiri’s place and she and Hotaru decided to go to Byakko Hall too. They walked through the desert, searching for their friends and the Hall.

After all of the Genbu Seishi woke up (Michiru, Ami, Makoto, Rei, Usagi and Kaen) they decided on going up the mountain to get to Genbu Hall and take their Shinzaho. They dressed in warm clothing and started on their way, Kaen leading the way. They came to a very steep, icy, narrow portion of the path and Kaen told them to be careful. She was the first to slip off the path and fall down a the mostly narrow gorge, then Usagi and Rei fell after her, Usagi accidentally dragging Makoto down with her. Michiru jumped down too followed by Ami. Kaen got up and spotted a HUGE door, which she recognized as the entrance to Genbu Hall. Kaen told the others to go inside and get the Shinzaho while she stood guard for them. They stood around banging on the door for awhile, making Kaen believe they were even *more* incompetent than she already thought they were. Kaen told Usagi to call on Genbu to open the door, which she did, and the door opened. They walked inside and Usagi was greeted with a pretty serious hit of ice from the wall. Then a tall man with whitish-brown hair, an eye patch on his right eye, and traditional Ancient Chinese fighting clothing appeared before them, looking rather ghost-like. He stood before another of the gigantic doors with the "Seal of Genbu" on them. He asked them who they were to trespass in the Hall of Genbu. They said they were Genbu No Miko and Genbu Seishi. Hikitsu smirked at them, not believing a word they said.

Back at Byakko Hall, Chichiri, Haruka and Seiya fond the hall in ruins. Chichiri was very shocked and told them this was VERY bad. And that the Seiryuu Seishi had most likely already gotten Byakko’s Shinzaho. Setsuna arrived with Hotaru following. Hotaru passed out while she was laying on the ground from the long trek after talking for a moment. Setsuna picked her up, then after a little bit, passed out too. Haruka caught Setsuna, then made a wild dash to catch Hotaru too, catching Hotaru as well. She gave Setsuna to Seiya and told him to hold onto her for a little while. Chichiri said they had better get to Genbu Hall and find the other Shinzaho if they wanted to have a chance. Haruka said they had better put Setsuna and Hotaru back first. Chichiri transported them back to his cottage.

Back in Genbu Hall, Usagi argued with the man for awhile. They got him to tell them that his name is Hikitsu. Hikitsu told Usagi, that if she really was Genbu No Miko, she should be able to pass a little test. Hikitsu raised a hand and encased her in an ice crystal. Usagi tried calling on Genbu many times to help her, but she couldn’t get out. Even after green energy crackled around the ice, it wouldn’t break. Hikitsu laughed at them, telling them this was absolutely pathetic. The Genbu Seishi stood there, glaring at Hikitsu and watching Usagi turn into a Popsicle. ((Niiiiice move guys…. Let your Miko freeze to death…..that’ll help lots…)) Hikitsu watched Usagi struggle pathetically, then turned to the Seishi and asked them why they didn’t use their powers to help her. They beat on the crystal and managed to crack it a little. Ami called on Genbu to help her, and give her power and she suddenly felt her new power come to her. She tried to shoot a bolt of lightning at the ice, but it just fizzled in her hand. Rei did the same thing, but when she shot at the crystal she shot two ice spears from her hands then smashed the crystal. Usagi fell out of the crystal, unconscious and blue in the face. Hikitsu told Rei that she was most likely a Seishi. But he felt Seiryuu power…. Then he turned to Usagi, thinking she was Seiryuu No Miko. He conjured ice serpents to shoot at her. Usagi regained consciousness and stood up. Hikitsu told her to get out NOW. They all refused to. He shot ice serpents at her, which missed. They argued with Hikitsu and he threatened them a lot. Usagi went to put a hand on his shoulder and went right through him. Hikitsu shot ice spears which he had gathered in his hands at her, and one hit. ((Usagi got hit a lot… she went down to I think 4 HP left… and plus she was frozen for a long time… thanks a lot Genbu Seishi :P Jeez…. Bet Usagi wishes Byakko Seishi were there….;P It’s about as bad as the time Mamoru and Usagi forgot about Ami and Taiki when they were near death… :P )) Finally Usagi fell unconscious from the beating, and Hikitsu rolled his eyes at how they were so incompetent. Hikitsu told them he’d give them one more chance, if they could use their Seishi powers to his satisfaction he might let them pass. Ami shot a small lightning strike through Hikitsu. Michiru shot a bigger lightning strike through him and Rei shot ice spears through him. Hikitsu nodded, and looked at Usagi. He turned around and opened the door, hoping that they really were Genbu Seishi. Rei followed him as he picked up the Shinzaho from an altar and handed it to her. She put it around her neck. Hikitsu looked back at all of them and smiled, saying he could rest now… he told them to take his advice and not trust much of anyone. He then disappeared in a flash of green light.

Michiru and Ami and Rei took forever trying to pick Usagi up… ((She must weigh ton… must be one of those deals where you can’t see all the weight, but it is there…)) Finally Michiru picked her up and they headed out… forgetting about Makoto… ((Poor Makoto… locked in Genbu Hall O.o)) They walked out of the Hall and the huge door closed behind them. Kaen asked Rei to see the Shinzaho, Rei didn’t want to give it up, but Michiru told her it was okay, so she did. Kaen put the Shinzaho around her neck then they started heading up the steep cliff. Ami made it up first, then Michiru shoved Usagi up to Ami.

Meanwhile, Haruka and Seiya set Hotaru and Setsuna down in beds then hopped into Chichiri’s hat to get going. Mamoru woke up and decided to come too, he hopped into the hat too, then Chichiri followed. About halfway through the transportation, they ended up falling into the ocean from midair. Chichiri put his hat up on the waves and told them to try to get into it. Seiya tried climbing on Haruka’s shoulders to get in and failed, Haruka tried climbing in and failed. Haruka looked around at the seemingly endless ocean, thinking of Michiru. Mamoru tried and on his first try got in and transported ((Grr….)) After Haruka and Seiya failed to get into the hat some more times, Chichiri held it underwater and told them to hurry and get in before the waves got higher. Haruka and Seiya jumped in then Chichiri followed. They finally made it to a village of Hokkan. ((The same one Kaen supposedly lived in)) And they started up the mountain, Haruka in the lead, all very cold. ((Well their clothes are made for desert travel, and they’re now wet from the ocean, and plus… it’s kind of *extremely* cold in Hokkan.)) Haruka came to the narrow passage and spotted Ami. She walked towards Ami, trying to be careful, but she slipped down the passage and ended up in the gorge too.

Haruka looked at Michiru as she seemed to ignore her and try climbing up the side of the gorge again. Haruka watched her, wondering if it was really her, then spotted Kaen and asked her who she was. Chichiri looked down into the gorge and yelled to Haruka to get out of there quick. He jumped into the gorge and ripped the Shinzaho away from Kaen. He threw his hat down and told them to get out of there QUICK. Seiya jumped down too, and he and a couple others started wondering what was going on and asking Chichiri why he was acting like that. Kaen gathered blue lightning in her hand and shot off a shot at Chichiri, which missed. He put up yellow barrier and told them to hurry and go! They stood around confused. Suddenly a huge blue ball of energy came from the wall and knocked Chichiri flat ((Can we say 7 damage from that blue ball? ;P)) his barrier broke and he laid on the ground, struggling to get up. Kaen ran over and grabbed the Shinzaho from him then backed towards the wall on the other side of the gorge. Haruka ran at her with a punch, which missed. Kaen told the Genbu Seishi that they were so naïve, and she introduced herself as "Seiryuu Seishi…. Soi!" She laughed at them and informed them that the story she told them was true (the one about all Seishi not serving a called god dying) She said they were all going to die very soon, laughed and shot a farewell bolt of lightning at Haruka (which Haruka dodged) before vanishing into the wall.

Haruka slammed her fists into the wall, trying to get to Soi by some strange miracle, but she ended up bruising her own knuckles instead. Chichiri crawled to the side of the gorge and Seiya propped him up on it. Chichiri said that Soi wasn’t the one who had that much power, but Nakago did. They talked and argued for awhile then Chichiri threw his hat down and put his cape over it. He told them he could transport 4 people at most. Haruka suggested the ones who’d passed out. And Mamoru said he had to go with Usagi. So, Ami and Usagi were dragged back down into the gorge and stuffed in the hat, along with Rei, Mamoru jumped in after them and Chichiri threw he staff in after them to close the portal. The ones left behind talked for a little while then decided that they’d better get Chichiri out of there. Seiya climbed up and dragged Chichiri with him, then headed down the mountain with him. Michiru climbed up and reached down to help Haruka up. It took them a couple tries, especially since Haruka’s hands were very numb and the rest of her body was becoming numb as well. Michiru finally dragged her up and they started down the mountain hand in hand.

Taiki finally made his way to Ancient China, glowing green of course :P He had with him some medkits, clothing, and heat pads. Mamoru dragged Ami, Usagi and Rei into ‘Kaen’s cottage.’ Seiya brought Chichiri there, who had fallen unconscious. As Haruka and Michiru walked down the mountain they heard someone calling to them for help. Michiru warned Haruka it might be a trap, but Haruka followed the voice anyway and found a young man trapped under the rocks. She helped him out and back to the cottage. There, Michiru helped Haruka to a bed and the man was helped to a chair by Seiya. The man introduced himself as Genbu Seishi, Tomite. They fixed up the hurt ones, got Haruka into some warmer clothes as Taiki and Michiru argued over massaging her ((O.o)). Setsuna finally woke up and made the right portal then transported into a closet in ‘Kaen’s cottage’s’ closet. She came out and they all talked for awhile, Tomite told them that Hikitsu was his best friend… and then he explained that Michiru and Ami were born under the constellation Soi, just like ‘Kaen’. And that they had the power of lightning and ::coughs:: (Something else they won’t be using!! Ahem…) He told them that Taiki had the power of ice serpents and these green disk things he could throw around people and make them implode… Chichiri told Mamoru that he had powers dealing with sand. He told Setsuna her powers had to do with searing heated winds, and that Haruka’s had to do with extraordinary fighting skill. The talked about how they were in big trouble for losing BOTH Shinzaho ((We’re losers… ;P)) Chichiri said they’d probably have to get to Seiryuu Hall and try to stop Seiryuu No Miko from calling Seiryuu. Which, wasn’t going to be an easy task from what he heard about Seiryuu No Miko. They talked for a bit, then most of them fell asleep in their chairs or on the floor… ((or in Ami’s case, in the chamber pot… heheh…)) Haruka pulled Michiru down into her bed (she’s one of the few in an actual bed) and they fell asleep too.
